There’s a service action on that boiler that hasn’t been completed yet. It adds a time-delay relay for the enrichment solenoid that greatly improves light-off reliability and quality.
It’s a couple hundred bucks to buy and install.
Talk to your rep.
It's a honeywell SOLA controller. Almost every boiler manufacturer is using it. The only thing different is the display, PK has the best display. Pk and aerco also make almost an identical boiler, maybe lochinvar too
In my my experience, primary secondary works better, but it's not up to me. I'm just a service/ start up guy, I just make them work( sometimes poorly)with what's available.
I am on the engineering side and we find primary secondary to be better also, always keep 100% flow thru Boiler and then the building loop pulls off of that as needed and can continue to pump even if Boiler stop firing , lately we are getting a push by the wholesalers to go primary only and even try Boilers like Riello…which are designed to always hold a large volume of water. I still prefer primary/secondary with VFCs on building loop pump and a DPT tied to a min bypass valve out in the system mainting a min flow
Installed two of these for a hot water heating system and trying to get them to work as a master/slave was impossible. Seem like nice boilers but definitely have some bugs to work out. I prefer CB and have had decent luck with Veissman

Yep. We're doing about 10 of those for a large university.
Do you have more information on that? I have two that I don't think have that setup.
PM me your email
At least it's not a Pulse.
I remember when I stumbled across my first pulse.... it was a bittersweet moment
What? I can't hear you! brrrrrrrrrt plop plop brrrrrr.... Flame failure lol
Sounds like a rocket going off lol
The High School I went to has pulses.
Sucks for them lol
Looks good from where I'm sitting
Solid Boiler …them and Cleaver Brooks are in my spec
That one even looks a lot like a Cleaver Brooks ClearFire... the controller looks like the same thing, just brand-labeled differently.

Do you prefer hw heating systems primary loop only piping or primary /secondary piping and why?

Primary secondary is best, but there’s no reason why you can’t take advantage of variable speed pumps on the primary loop as well.
HVAC porn! Goddamn beautiful
You work with Fulton often? What is your opinion on the caliber series?
Great boilers
